In dealing with this theme, the two artists face the problems of a systematical study of movement, dynamics, impulses, therefore of modern dance. And they are able to achieve their goal.
Patrizia Cavola is a type, a character, with her sharp, triangular face, she is a dancer of character who doesn’t hesitate to mortify her body, unusual case among us, to break or tangle the lines to express embarrassment or torment. Ivàn Truol is a sure fibre of actor, with his dazzled and bewildered face, he moves very well using mimes’ drolleries. This is unusual too. That an actor could “do” … For all these particular things we feel up to mark out Atacama as a direction of rigorous and serious performing. If the opportunity should occur: go and watch it, rejecting the confusion, the unintelligibility, the superficiality that surround and oppress us from all directions, apart the exceptions, but it is our duty, as you can see, to give notice of them.
